  1. i'm curious. does anyone know anything about tulane's reputation both domestically and internationally? i'm interested in attending, but I am not too familiar with it. this would be for global health systems. thanks!
  2. hey all! congrats on the admissions news! @ loganartemis: i don't believe UW's GH program has moved through to the acceptance phase yet. I know they just finished the prelim interviews and i'm guessing they will be moving through the final phase this month. however, i wouldn't be surprised if they do another set of interviews. i'm guessing the meta-analysis comment was referring to the metrics track which employs students at IHME (which i hear is a **ton** of statistical work, but obviously an invaluable experience and totally worth it). i did hear that they received over 110 applications, only ~30 of which were for the metrics track, so the implementation science side will be fairly competitive. i think the program has pros and cons -- obviously stellar global health folks, but it's only in its 2nd year which I'm sure brings both challenges and opportunities for the early cohorts. regardless, you really couldn't go wrong if you got in there! good luck!!!
  3. @ihernandez.1 -- cool! my interests are mainly in improving access to care for women in low resource settings, but most of my research background is in health IT. i'm also really interested in health systems strengthening work. @elsewhy -- yes, it's hugely intimidating. i'm actually applying to an absurd number of schools (10 - listed below), assuming that they are going to be incredibly competitive and I have no idea how my application will hold up. where are you applying? @sepiasizemore -- how did it work out for you last year? any advice? like i mentioned, i'm applying to a ton of programs. i just have no idea what to expect from the admissions process. here's my list: university of washington - global health and health services (submitted) unc - health policy/management harvard - health policy (submitted) washu - health services research and policy analysis (submitted) univ. of minnesota - health services research and policy (submitted) tulane - global health (submitted) johns hopkins - international health emory - health services univ of michigan - health policy/management Would love to hear how everyone's applications work out!! Fingers crossed!
  4. Anyone out there applying to public health PhD programs? I'm applying to mostly Health Policy & Management programs, with a few global health and public policy thrown in the mix. Would love to hear about others' experiences with the process as we're nearly the application deadlines! Cheers!
